Tips for Shopping For Your Bridesmaids’ Dresses

• Do not rush your decision. Shopping for bridesmaid outfit ideas will take time, so do not feel pressured to make a decision quickly just because your mall is having a sale or because you are under a deadline to order the dresses.

• Research: Research the bridesmaid dress ideas first. Is it a strapless dress with a sweetheart neckline? Or are you looking at a knee-length or ball gown? Does the skirt flare out at the bottom, or has it a fabric-covered train? What color scheme do you have in mind? Do you want dresses that match or dresses that stand alone?

• Try on clothes: Go to a department store and try the style of dress your bridesmaids are looking for.

• Be honest but diplomatic: Be frank with your bridesmaids about the dresses you like, but do not get into too much detail about why you want them. If your shopping experience is terrific, your girls will feel good about themselves and may develop a little crush on their bridezilla, which will make for great memories and even better bridesmaids.

• Trust your gut: Go with what feels like the best possible choice. Do not let other people influence you or tell you that a dress looks better than what feels right. You can always go back in if it is not perfect, but do not worry about making everyone happy by buying some dresses that aren’t perfect for them.
